Adopted

Two little boys were adopted today!

It was an amazing day for us all!! Keith and the boys will all 3 tell you that they’ve been father and sons for 37 years ….

Keith looked a little apprehensive back then doesn’t he but I guess he had good reason considering what he was taking on …

Today we went to court and he formally adopted the boys.

One big happy family … and the Judge!

You might wonder why it was done now, after all these years. Recently we updated our wills and the lawyer made it clear that if I died first that Keith’s next of kin would not be the boys. We decided that there was no question about them being his next of kin so we made the decision to legally ensure it.
